Extraer conjugation
Table of Contents
Extraer is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to extract, take out”.
Below are all of the conjugations for extraer in Spanish, in all three moods (indicative/indicativo, subjunctive/subjunctivo and imperative/imperativo) and all of the tenses, for each pronoun.
The vosotros pronoun is mainly used in mainland Spain, and is the informal second-person plural – it could be considered the Spanish version of “y’all”. It is rarely found in Latin America, where ustedes is used instead.
The vos form is used instead of tú in some Spanish speaking countries of South America, especially the Southern Cone (e.g. Argentina and Uruguay) and has a different conjugation.

Extraer Gerund and Past Participle
The gerund (gerundio) is used with the continuous tenses, e.g. present continuous (está extrayendo) and past continuous (estaba extrayendo). The easiest way to think of it is the equivalent of english’s -ing form (e.g. extracting).
The past participle (participio) is used with perfect tense ‘haber’ verbs, e.g. he extraído and hubiera extraído. These are the equivalent of English’s ‘have’ (e.g. have extracted).

In English, these use the auxiliary verbs ‘have’ and ‘has’ – i.e. “I have extracted” and “she has extracted”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |

| Yo | he extraído | I have extracted |
| Tú | has extraído | You have extracted |
